Plenty of numbers available for NBA athletes who want to make a number their own. The numbers 78, 79, 80, 81, 82 and 83 are all up for grabs. Kind of hard to believe actually. When you look at a league like the NHL or the NFL, where a player has worn every jersey number from 1 through 99, it's kind of hard to believe that there are so many open jersey numbers in the NBA.

But, here we are. And jersey number 84 has only even been worn in one season, by Chris Webber of the Detroit Pistons. In 2007 Webber wore 84 in 43 regular season games for the Motor City NBA team.

Webber, of course, had a long a distinguished NBA career. We won't go into all of his accomplishments over his career here. What we will say, is that Webber scored 486 points and pulled down 288 boards in his time with Detroit. (If you want to see all of his career NBA stats go to basketball-reference.com.)
